Chapter 993: Ambitious Cosmic Mining Plan

PS: Today is still eight watches, thank you for your monthly pass, I hope to be able to maintain this rhythm, there are less than twenty-seven hours left until the end of this month, can you give some rewards?

――――――

Hawking's final decision also settled the matter, and then the four of them continued to discuss many details again.

Two hours later, Cai Ruichen left Hawking's villa and returned to New York City.

On the way back, Cai Ruichen has been thinking about these two things.

In fact, the two plans he participated in were just preparations for Cai Ruichen's rainy day.

For the exploration of the universe, Cai Ruichen has always had extremely large ambitions, and many departments of the future aerospace company he established have been working hard for this.

And his ambition, in fact, can also be seen from the future space launch center, the eight satellite launch points are connected, in fact, in fact, the launch site of a super spacecraft.

And Cai Ruichen's ambition is not simply to immigrate to Mars or the moon, but to expand his strength and influence.

And this plan is also quite urgent, the source of the base's strength is not in him, but in funding.

Cai Ruichen saw this very clearly, the only thing the Red Police Corps needed to become strong was more funds.

The source of funds can only rely on the recovery of minerals, all the minerals on the earth are limited, and Cai Ruichen cannot wait until he occupies the whole world to mine all the minerals on the earth.

So he needs to be in a place that the great powers have not yet touched. Find more and more stable sources of funding.

On the earth, all the funds have already been divided among the big countries, and he can only get a little bit of the corners. If you want to get those really big interests, you must also touch the interests of the big countries.

But beyond the planet, there is a new point of competition, not by military power, but by who can take the lead and own these interests.

So Cai Ruichen has always been in a hurry, and he has many goals. Helium-3 on the moon is one of the most important minerals.

This point has even been raised by the base, because in the future, the base can even have nuclear fusion technology. But if there is no helium-3 as a raw material, it is all in vain.

There are only 500 tons of helium-3 reserves in the world, which simply cannot meet the needs of the base, not to mention. More technical equipment and scientific and technological equipment in the future. All of them need to be used in nuclear fusion.

Without helium-3 as support, it is impossible for the future development of the base to reach the level of the base itself.

If he wants to give full play to all the strength of the base, Cai Ruichen must find a way to mine helium three, and helium three can only satisfy him outside the earth.

In fact, in the entire solar system, there are many planets that all have a large amount of helium-three, and there are also many helium-three reserves on Titan, among the various meteorites that exist in the solar system. There are also many helium-three presents.

But compared to the distance between the moon and the earth, it is easier to mine helium-3 on the moon.

And this is Cai Ruichen's ambitious cosmic mining plan.

In fact. Long before Cai Ruichen, the United States had such a plan for several years, and the United States has two companies specializing in space mining technology research, which can receive a large amount of financial assistance from the US government every year.

In Europe, Luxembourg, a small country, was the first country to start mining in the universe, and Luxembourg is also beginning to legislate various rules for the mining of space ore, which will eventually be submitted to the United Nations for consideration.

At that time, as long as the United Nations passes it, there will be laws to follow for the exploitation of space minerals, and at least after a country officially extends its tentacles to the earth, there will also be a rule to restrain it.

And Luxembourg is the country with the most advanced space exploration technology in the whole European country, although the size of this country, in fact, it does not even have to be on the third ring area of the capital, but in this field, it is indeed the boss of Europe, otherwise where did Luxembourg come from such ambitions.

However, compared with the United States and Europe, Cai Ruichen rarely speaks, but sits a lot.

His construction of the future science and technology space station is the first step to realize this ambition, and the future technology space station will be the first step to colonize the moon.

Moreover, the future of the future science and technology space station will also have the ability to carry the ore refinery, that is to say, Cai Ruichen will build the ore refinery into the space station.

This is not delusional, in fact, once the future science and technology space station is completed, it will be a super large space base, which can simulate the earth's gravity field environment, just like the gravity room of the training center.

It can perfectly simulate the gravity environment of the earth, and the space will also expand, and it will gradually become a space city.

Such a grand plan is actually unimaginable to human beings in various countries at present, and at most it is just to find out in the world of science fiction imagination.

Of course, one of the greatest treasures of mankind is imagination, and the ambitious Cai Ruichen is about to turn such imagination into reality.

When the whole world discovers this, I am afraid that it is really reasonable to exist.

And the ambition of Cai Ruichen's cosmic mining plan is not only the moon, but also the entire solar system in the future, in his words: planting my national flag, it is my land, I came, I saw, I conquered.

Of course, don't think that those planets in the solar system alone can satisfy Cai Ruichen, because once his ambition swells, it will definitely be the kind of goose plucking.

Although there are no geese in the universe, all kinds of meteorites are indispensable, and on these meteorites, there are more minerals.

For the minerals on these meteorites, Cai Ruichen has never thought of giving up, and even many satellites have determined that a large number of meteorites have a lot of minerals that are very scarce on the earth.

In fact, Cai Ruichen's idea is very simple, that is, to use all possible technologies to get as much base development funds as possible.

Because with the upgrade of authority, the cost of those high-level units and weapon units has also skyrocketed.

Earning 20 million a day is completely insufficient for those high-level equipment.

Even, even if all the weapons and equipment of the intermediate units are produced at the same time, even if the daily capital income of 50 million is far from enough.

Moreover, the focus of future development will be on the most expensive naval and air force equipment, and the cost of an aircraft carrier battle group is completely piled up with funds, and it is not cheap.

For a long time, Cai Ruichen's vision has been very far, and the questions he thinks about are all years later, after all, if he takes one step at a time, it will be a disaster for the Red Police Corps.

Solemnly declare: The real technology involved in this book is all real, not gorgeous nonsense. (To be continued.) )
